I don’t know if you noticed but Viacom has a new management position:Executive Vice President of Production. I’m usually against the piling up of expensive manager positions, but in this case I can say that we needed something like this. This position will provide an important link between the management and the profession, giving that we are a big company with many brands. Think this will benefit the company performance, off course if the job is done right.
In this newly created role, Ring will oversee domestic production for scripted, unscripted, short-form and live events across Viacom’s brand portfolio – including Comedy Central, MTV, VH1, CMT, TV Land, Nickelodeon, Paramount Network and BET, and the studio production units launched by Comedy Central, MTV and Nickelodeon – as well as for Viacom Digital Studios. She will work closely with creative executives, producers, and other partners across the organization to manage all aspects of Viacom’s production needs, from development to post-production, including with respect to budgeting, scheduling and staffing.
